Over the years, Dr Singh has mentored numerous dentists and runs teaching sessions for other dentists.
Dr Singh completed a further three-year full-time training in Oral Surgery and Implant Dentistry. He wanted to offer the best clinical service to his patients based on sound science evidence and comprehensive training. He has been placing implants for the past 20 years ranging from single tooth replacement to full mouth rehabilitation and over the years has placed thousands of implants.
Some patients’ who were referred to Dr Singh for Implant treatment could be offered an alternative treatment, so he completed another three years of Endodontic training and now offers Endodontics treatment to his patients’. Dr Singh has a large referral base and Endodontic treatment means that the patients’ can retain their own natural teeth without having to undergo implant treatment.
Dr Singh then completed a four-year programme in Advanced Prosthodontics (MClin Dent Fixed and Removable Prosthodontics) from Kings College Dental School, London. This enables him to complete complex restorative treatment for patients’ who require Implant retained dentures, complete full mouth rehabilitation and smile make over which includes complex veneers and crowns.
Dr Singh has treated many patients with TMD (Temporomandibular Dysfunction), clenching and grinding and advanced tooth wear. This involves opening the bite with palatal veneers and complex composite fillings.

Aryaan Khalid
DENTIST
Aryaan qualified from University of Leeds with Merit in Master and Bachelor of Dental Surgery and Bachelor of Science. Since graduating, Aryaan has attended many postgraduate courses. He is currently enrolled on a diploma level course in Oral Surgery.
I like restoring oral health and function. It’s very rewarding to improve my patients’ appearance and confidence. I have completed many restorative cases where patients have not been to the dentist for years and have neglected their oral health. For instance, they come to an initial appointment with missing, decayed, painful teeth and gums. I like improving my patients’ overall oral health, not just focusing on one tooth or area. I like saving teeth!
In my spare time I like to keep fit. When I was living in Scotland, I participated in a 10k run (editor’s note: actually a “Beast Race” near Loch Ness with steep hills, icy cold water, a lot of mud and 1,800 competitors) and won the race! I adopted a stray cat when I was a student in Leeds. He’s called Rudy, and I still look after him.
